This is Jillian. Cute, right?
Did you watch The Bachelor last night? I didn't, but I caught up tonight. A little follow up to the angry rant of last week.
On this week's show, there was one moment that I was especially pleased to see. Thrilled in fact. And hopeful that I would finally get some answers.
Alas, just like all the political debates I painfully sat through this past year I was left with fewer answers than I started with.
At any rate, this highlight, this magical moment if you will, was when Chris asked our ever-lovin' bachelor why he couldn't make it happen with Jillian. And then pushed him on it a couple times.
OF COURSE Mr. Bachelor gave the standard answer, "We had everything going for us, she would be my best friend, but the chemistry just wasn't there."
Chris didn't buy what he was selling. (Bravo Chris, bravo.) He said, "So, you're in the hot tub with Jillian — your friend — in New Zealand... things got really heated.'' And when Jason tries to brush it off by saying that there was passion, just not enough for a marriage, Harrison isn't buying what he's selling: ''What you did in the hot tub almost consummated marriage,'' and ''Cinemax called — they said it was too hot."
Thank you Chris, and bless you Chris for saying what millions of women have asked men for years with no satisfactory response. Or maybe just me. At any rate like Chris I was confused, and I was fooled.
So riddle me this people. What does the bachelor (and for that matter all bachelors across the country) mean when he says there is no physical attraction? Cause I'll tell you this--when I have no physical attraction, the LAST thing I'm gonna do is make out with said person in a hot tub---in fact I'm not even going to let them get arm's length. I'll be pulling the old "high five" at the end of the date move that I learned from Sean Hedquist.
That's...no attraction. So if anyone has ANY insight - please. Please. Enlighten me.

Jasons BUGGED this week. I can't believe he could sit there with a straight face and actually say that he and Jillian were only "just friends"...from the get go!!! He admitted that the hot tub was passionate and hot. Sooo what else do you need buddy boy?! I'd understand if it was a one night deal and she was a stranger he met at some work conference thing or something. But no he is looking for his wife, a mother to his son and he freakin' acted like a fraternity boy sowing his wild oats with these girls (especially Jillian) And must we remind him, HE was the one that kept pulling Jillian aside telling her that he had strong feelings for her and he needed to know where she was. What happened to those "strong" feelings? Augghhh he bugs! but of course, I'm watching next week. :) So do you think the rumors are true? is he going to propose to Melissa and then dump her for Molly? Oh the dramarama!!!
I'm so glad you watch this show, it makes for some good blogging. :)
"He's just not that into her." Making out's a whole other thing that must be beside the point. I loved Jillian and I hope she becomes the next Bachelorette.
I'm betting on Melissa and the reason for the "intimate" setting for after the final rose, is because Melissa's family finally meets Jason.
Amen and amen ladies. Jamie--some very valid points--it wasn't just the too hot for prime time makeout--he kept asking her if she was in to him. Helloooo?? Anyway--my brother in law Abram was kind enough to point out-- "You do remember this guy is on the bachelor, right?"
So I haven't really been watching this season, but based on your recap, here's my theory. I think physical attraction is just the baseline for "chemistry" with guys. It sounds like he definitely was physically attracted to her. I think guys also need emotional attraction to feel a "spark", and its more than friendship. I actually think it has more to do with how the guy feels about himself when he's with the girl than it does with the qualities of the girl herself. The fact that you say he kept asking her how she really felt shows he was insecure about that. How a girl could really let her guard down in the twisted dating experience that is the Bachelor is beyond me. Its a situation that definitely doesn't favor the sincere in heart.
